Rubik Unbound

This is yet another Java implementation of the classical Rubik's Cube. I tried to make the user interface as simple and obvious as possible. You should be able to figure out how it works. Twist or rotate by pointing and dragging in "natural" directions.

Try clicking and holding the corners to twist or hold on the center of the cube and move the mouse around to move the cube around.

Press S to scramble and R to restore (while positioning the mouse cursor somewhere in the applet region).

The source code can be found here, but I have hardly documented it at all, so it looks rather cryptic.

(An optional parameter, "bgcolor", has been added. If used, it takes as input a background color as a hexadecimal RGB value, e.g. "25003f" for deep purple. Default is ordinary light gray.)
